Lexus has finished second in class in its first attempt at the notorious Pikes Peak hill climb in Colorado with its Lexus IS F CCSR . US racer Ken Gushi piloted the highly modified Lexus IS F over the gruelling 20-kilometre course in a time of 11 minutes, 35.17 seconds – to finish second in the Exhibition class, behind a lightweight V12 racing car. Based on the V8-powered Lexus IS F road car, the IS F CCSR-Concept was first shown at the Tokyo Auto Salon in 2010 and features various performance and safety modifications to enable it to run at the Pikes Peak event. http://www.caradvice.com.au/186146/lexus-is-f-pikes-peak/

The Lexus LF-LC concept unveiled at January’s Detroit motor show could reach showroom floors as a full-scale production car within three years. The LF-LC concept car was a front-engined rear-wheel drive hybrid that Lexus said was indented to deliver a “driver-focused experience”. The concept followed Lexus’ ‘L finesse’ design language with a distinctive spindle grille, L-shaped daytime running lights and tail-lights and a lightweight panoramic glass roof.
